traffic by 2020, up from 70

percent today

Virtual Realitytraffic will increase 61-fold

between 2015 and 2020

Wearableswill increase 5x by 2020, up from

today’s 97 million devices that are

generating 15 petabytes per month

UHD TV (4K TV)will be 20.7% of IP VoD traffic in

2020, up from 1.6% today

Consolidation to leverage CMTS Capacity

• Provides hub site consolidation

• Increased scaling and density

• Lower power consumption and smaller footprint

• Increase in supported segments on the CMTS

(2x/4x)• Enables DOCSIS 3.1 for rural regions

• Linear fiber from headend for better MER and

D3.1 modulation profiles

• Enables transition to Cloud Native CMTS

The Cisco Remote PHY Solution

• Open Standards compliant, the only standard in town…

• First company to submit R-PHY Code for the OpenRPD Project

• Only company to be at EVERY CableLabs InterOp with both a core and RPD

• First company to bring multiple Remote PHY Devices (RPDs) to market

— GS-7000 1x2 and 2x2 BAU RPD

— RPD Shelf in compact and full HA modular form factors

• Minimal Core Changes

— Change the RFPIC to a DPIC on the cBR8

— Instantly doubles the number of Service Groups to 16 per LC

— Virtual Splitting and Combining capabilities

The Cisco Cloud Native Broadband Router is…

Not a lift and shift of

legacy, monolithic

software

Not tied to proprietary

hardware

Is open standards

based, modular, elastic,

composable, and

resilient

Why Cloud Native?

Definition

An application designed for the cloud

consisting of multiple microservices, that

are elastic, resilient, and composable.

Benefits

• Service velocity

• Streamlined Operations (DevOps)

• Non-Stop Service

• Inherently Resilient and Elastic Scaling

• In-production validation early and often

• Modular and composable microservices

• Built on open standards

Why Cloud Native versus Virtual Machine

Cloud Native Benefits

Scale Capacity

Operators need the ability to quickly

scale network resources and meet

the increasing demands for

connectivity and bandwidth

Need for Lower Cost

The need to continue to lower the

cost per bit through efficiency,

automation, less power, less

physical space requirements

Demand for New Services

New market opportunities like the

Internet of Things (IoT) and mobility are

fueling the need for operators to

evolve

Need for ResiliencyNetworks are always on and operators

are challenged with monitoring,

maintaining, and remediating faults,

ensuring service availability andreliability for their end users
